Naivasha

Naivasha is a little known Kenyan town in the expansive Rift Valley region that is famous for having a number of wonderful sites but hardly known by international tourist with many preferring to explore the western region. The town lies North West of Nairobi city and it is about a one and a half hour journey from the city centre and about a two hour journey form the Jomo Kenyatta airport. This not being a hindrance to marketing the region, many local tour operators offer tourists great vacation packages for the local tourists who have exploited these opportunities. But why do local tourists enjoy the views of this small township?
Naivasha is part of the expansive Nakuru District with the town enjoying an urban population of 20,000 people as per the 2009 census that took place in the country. Most of these inhabitants rely on agriculture and horticulture for their livelihoods and with the recent expansion of infrastructure (roads) in the region it has opened doors to trading as another means to their livelihoods. This in turn has improved the lives of these people by far allowing for expansion of educational facilities as well as social amenities. Naivasha is known to produce world-class fruit, vegetables and flowers for export to Europe, Asia the Americas and of course other African countries in the African region.
Hell's Gate National Park is one of the most visited parks in the country alongside Longonot National Park and Mount Longonot is nearby attractions in the Naivasha area. Tours also have included Lake Naivasha, for tourists to observe birdlife and hippopotamus behavior, as well as other wild animals. Among the hotels and lodges found in the area are the Lake Naivasha Country club, Kiangazi house, Loldia House and the Naivasha hotel (which was previously known as Lake Hotel) among other popular hotels. Also near the region is the Crescent Island that is a hub for fishing with the Tilapias, Bass and Cat fish breeding in plenty.
Among the lakes in this region are: the fresh water Lake Naivasha known for its vast numbers of pink flamingoes at the shores of the lake and also Lake Bogoria. The Menengai Crater which is a dormant mountain is also a great attraction to this region. This Crater is a great team building sight and its ascent is pretty exciting and fairly easy with the reward of the ascent being a lush, green view of the area.
During the peak season for flower exportations, the flower farms are laden with magnificent variety of flowers from which the sight is just enchanting for anybody. These flowers include daffodils, marigolds, lilies, tulips, all kinds of roses and violets among many other flower varieties in the market.
The Town also has very friendly people who are only too willing to help you if you do get lost in the region trying to look for your favorite relaxing destination. Those who have sampled the hotels and restaurants say that their services are up to speed with them only too willing to please the customer.
